Hi Jopy In an effort to make sure that PN provides the accurate information of spottings published on it, I took a liberty to curate your spotting. I added the ID, few keywords and the reference. This rodent is Nutria or Coypu, an introduced, and often considered invasive, species in Europe. Hope you don't mind my intervention. Cheers
